Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.32-34squeeze1 Severity: wishlist kexec, kdump and crash are pretty powerful debugging tools. It would be nice if debian kernels supported kdump fully. If I read /usr/share/doc/kdump-tools/README.Debian correctly this would involve enabling CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y.
I could not find discussion on why this is not done. Are there any serious drawbacks? If there are, I'm fine with having to build my own kernels but lets document the problems somewhere please :-) -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
